',Jg■■■■ _ TheCeredo Advance. T. T. McDOUOAL, BD1TOR AND PROPRIKTOK. r ■- ■.—-- -- WEDNESDAY, APRIL 30, 1913. ! ‘J iie spirit ol ’70 still lives. Politics is a good game, but a mighty poor business. The spring season for Sunday drowning* i« now open. j Don’t wait for coveys of mos quitoes. Take the singles. At least the Brmsh woman tuf fragist is terribly in earnest. Some discuss bad roads, while others simply cuss the Nicholas of Moutenegro is one king they can’t scare off or buy off. England has to guard her jail to keep the suffragettes from break, ing in. Have they put congress on bench ee so Schoolmaster Wilson will feel at home? Secretary Bryan does not seen to be in favor of even silver dollai diplomacy. The trouble with New York’i “curfew” law is that it hits too few of its curs. - — • --- The idea ot Mr. Bryan letting — Peru get ahead of us in recognizing the*Ck luesc JKcj' u b 1 ic! Hugh M. Smith has been oppoint ed U. S. Fish Commissioner to suc ceed Geo. M. Bowere. Let’s see what were some ol those lessons we were to be taughi by the Titantic disaster? When they hit the United State! the M'.xioan bolder lighters are fir ing at a pretty big target. King Alpiionso has reason ti have a very poor opinion of thi rnarkmanship of would-be assassins China’s proclamation to tin world is of a character to maki ‘‘lion. Ancestors” sit up in thei graves. - * GhiiNA is likely to wonder wheih or Japan is going to assert hcrsel in world aflairs as a boss with a po litical pull. This country Uoesu’t want a king but if it should, there is some thing about King Alfonso thai might lead us to borrow him. “We are kept busy,” says Worth the man milliner, “creating to meei the demand of the American wo men.” Same here, Mr. Worth same here. That Republican triumph in tb< St. Louis election seems to be abou the only fly in the ointment, or ra\ of light in the gloom, as you choose to consider it. We shall not despair of the coun. try, however, until the president appears before congress to rccit* “Curfew shall not ring tonight,” oi “The face on the barroom floor.” A wise wife is one who pretend* to be asleep when hubby come s in at 2 o’clock in the morning anel knocks over the furniture. Twc o clock is a poor time for cffectivi argument. With Walter Cage as ambassa dor to England and .Thomas Nelson Rage “mentioned” for Italy, it should npt take long for the lner ary administration to have a com plete book. Perhaps congress intends to en force the distribution of sweetness and light to consumers, the sugar growers to furnish the sweetness and the Standard Oil e- "» ny the light. John T. McGkaW and Will Chilton are still at loggerheads The first named wa nts Geo. W. Johnson of Parkersburg appointed -Internal Revenue Collector, and the latter is fighting hard for the a.,_ point nun t of Sam A. Hay* of Gil mer county for that position. Will the president turn a deaf ear to the Grafton man, who worked valliantly for the nomination of the man as the Democratic candidate for the X&l ion a chief executive who won over the protest of Mr. Chilton? We shall sec what we shall see. Knowledge is power, but it takes gasoline to run an automobile. Puree feet of snow, in southern Germany gives the Delaware peach crop a long distance opportunity for its first annual killing. Kfpkksentativk W euii’s advo cacy of free castor oil as the poor man’s friend won’t go down with the trundle bed contingent. I iie operators aud miners have accepted the compromise proposi tion of Governor Hatfield and the strike in the Kanaw ha Coal fields i* over. President Wilson, like many a man before him, is learning the dif ference between theorizing about the tariff and trying to pass a bill which will put the theories int > practice. Governor IIatfielu has proven by the able manner in which he has handled the strike problems that the people of West Virginia made no mistake wheu they elected him gov ernor. I ni.ess the old time newspaper spirit is wholly dead, we may ex pect the account of “Sephus” Dan iels’ submarine adventures to in • elude a 200 word interview with our ancient friend, McGinty. Every West*Virginia newspaper . should enthusiastically and earnestly advocate the organization of a state editorial association. The weeklv press, much more than the daily press, needs such an organization. It is undoubtedly very appropri ate that the German dirigible air -hip should have been seized in Luneville, France. War cxcjte., ment would reach its highest pitch , tn such a town. 1 here are numbers of oil men in the county this week, looking about. There is oil and gas both in paying 'piantities within our border aud capitalists are beginning to find it out. — \\ ayne News. 'This is what we have thought for a long time. It will not be many years until old Wayne will be one of the wealthiest counties in the stale. Jerry W. Dinuess has been nominated by President Wilson to be postmaster at Huntington. Many persons think J. 11. Long of the Advertiser, who has long preached Democracy to the people of the “second city,” should have been gi'cn the position. Hut politics is a son-of* a-gun and the deserving ire more often left out in the cold than otherwise. Hon. John W. Davis will not succeed Judge as President Wilson has named Hon. Charles A. W oods of South Carolina for the position. It is not likely tnat a West \ irginia Democrat will secure an important office under the pres ent administration, excepting' the positions that must lie filled by res idents of the state. On account of flood troubles and other matters which claimed our at tention at the time, we neglected to mention the fact in this paper that the Charleston Mail issued one of the largest, handsomest and most comprehensive industrial editions the 15th inst. that was ever publish ed in this slate. Pro. (t. A.

This thought is held either consciously or cube n sciously, and either way it is a mistake. Take the Prindle furniture, for instance; there are hundreds of Huntington homes furnished with it and no extremely hitrh nrires have been paid, and in most instances there havre been the very most pleasing terms extended. Not because the pa trons have not had the money to pur chase expensive things or because they have not had the full price to pay at once. The Prindle’s furniture has proved good without being expensive, and many prefer to invest money where they will draw interest instead of paying outright for furniture. And it is a irood nlan. There is beauty and dignity as well as devised simplicity to the furniture bought at Prindle’s.
